Best Fun Restaurants in Mccully-Moiliili

The best omakase dining experience I’ve ever had was nothing short of magical. From the moment I sat at the counter, I knew I was in for something special. The chef greeted me warmly, and the intimacy of the setting made it feel like a private performance. Each dish was a revelation. The first bite—a piece of toro so fresh it practically melted in my mouth—set the tone. The chef’s precision was mesmerizing, from the way he sliced the fish to the delicate brushing of soy sauce. Every ingredient was carefully selected, and the seasonal touches made each bite feel like a fleeting masterpiece. What made it unforgettable wasn’t just the food—it was the storytelling. The chef explained the origins of the ingredients, why he paired certain flavors, and even shared anecdotes about his inspirations. It wasn’t just a meal; it was a journey. I left feeling not just satisfied but inspired, with a deeper appreciation for the art of sushi. It’s an experience I’ll treasure forever!!!

This is a fabulous place to come for great food and dine with friends and family. Today, we celebrated our company holiday luncheon. Most of the guests had never dined here, and was super happy with the atmosphere, lunch selections and of course, the amazing servers and staff. Mahalo Merriman’s for making our luncheon special.

The service is outstanding! We shared a pork, pineapple and jalapeño pizza and ahi tacos. The pizza was delicious and perfect for one person. They are wood fired pizzas and thin crust. We loved it! The ahi tacos were fantastic too. There were three of them and on the small side but delicious. We ended with the coconut cream pie and it was mouth watering. The atmosphere is wonderful; right on the water and you feel like you’re floating on it. There was live music playing and she was fantastic. A relaxing and peaceful lunch, at a beautiful spot.

Really nice experience with our large family! Amazing food!

I went here thinking I was going for a sushi bar, but I ended up with an Omakase experience. The fish was extremely fresh, I found out Thursday as “fresh fish Thursday“ when they get all of their shipments in, but when I came into this place I thought it was going to be busy because of the reviews, but I was the third person there. The sushi chef was one year in the US coming from Japan, so knew very little English, but I just rolled with it. Turned out. I had a wonderful experience with some delicious sushi. I’ve had Uni in the past and I thought it tasted like the bottom of the ocean, but the Uni they had here was straight from Japan and it was very sweet … and I can now understand why they consider it a delicacy. Had a couple glasses of sake, along with the Omakase experience. All in it was about $160 … but it was unbelievably delicious. I would highly recommend this place.
